What the free preview includes
The first two modules are open with no payment, including the interactive Prompting lesson where you write a prompt and watch the AI respond, plus the good-versus-bad prompt comparison. It is the quickest way to feel how the course actually teaches, not just what it covers.
What you'll be able to do
By the end of the course, you can:
- Write finance-grade prompts using the RACEF framework
- Spot where AI improves forecast accuracy and speeds scenario modelling
- Evaluate and select AI tools with the F.A.I.R. framework
- Build a lightweight governance framework with clear roles and controls
- Scale AI from a successful pilot to sustainable deployment
- Build a 12–24 month roadmap that sustains momentum after the pilot
What you'll learn
Tailored to your world
Tell us your finance process, your AI tool and your finance system once, and every worked example and RACEF prompt is re-framed for your day job, with your most relevant lessons surfaced first. Prefer the full course untailored? That is one click too.
Stuck on a concept? An in-lesson assistant answers questions grounded only in the lesson you are reading, never off-topic, never invented.
The Prime Method
Built to make it stick, not just to be watched once
The course is built on the two most replicated findings in learning science, retrieval practice and spacing, plus a tutor that coaches instead of answering. You recall as you go, concepts resurface on a schedule, and the assistant walks you to the answer rather than handing it over.
Practice record
Every study day logged, so your streak is something you can see.
Review queue
Miss something and it comes back, spaced to when you are about to forget.
Capability certificate
Your certificate states what you can do, not just the hours you sat.
Seven things you'll build
You leave with more than knowledge. These are the artefacts you produce along the way.
AI Opportunity Calculator
A costed ROI case for AI in your finance team: hours saved, FTE released, payback.
Process assessments
Structured P2P, O2C, R2R and FP&A reviews that pinpoint where AI pays off first.
Your prompt library
Ready-to-use RACEF prompts, plus a builder to make your own, copyable and savable.
F.A.I.R. tool evaluation
A weighted scorecard to choose AI tools on Functionality, Accessibility, Integration and Risk.
AI governance framework
A risk-and-control structure your compliance team will recognise: FCA, PRA, UK GDPR aware.
90-day pilot plan
A week-by-week plan to run, measure and decide on a real AI pilot.
CFO-ready business case
A proposal with ROI projections you can take to your board.
Built for a regulated profession
UK-specific, verification-first, kept current.
Regulatory content is written for the UK (FCA and PRA expectations, UK GDPR, the Companies Act 2006) and is never paraphrased by AI. The course is reviewed against the latest model releases and guidance.
Educational content only, not legal, tax or regulatory advice. Certificate of Completion covers 15 to 20 CPD-aligned learning hours.
